LadyUnderTheOaks

Recently moved from the very eastern side of the county to the most western side...(only one oak tree across the street!). from the country to the coast! My fisherman has always wanted to be close to or on the water and we did it! My heart is still under the oaks but our new home has given us so many new sights...animals...amazing birds.and water..Peaceful...calming water.

Lots and lots of photos, bicycle rides...walksbeautiful birds of prey building nests, matingand circling in the wind currents over the Gulfwaters.

First thing i need to do is figure out how toget all those photos from the new camera to the computer!

i can be doing anything in the house - hearthis guy and his friend calling each other outside...run get the camera and tip toe out the door. ... wait ... ... listen ... ... wait ...and then move in the direction i think the closestsound is coming from...then the hunt begins.

i can never never see them...always someone hasto point him out to me...this time "if you just stand right over here by thetractor and point the camera up in the air he is ontop of your head..." right!then "you will never make a photographer if you can't see them!" "he is right over your head!"sure enough -

not exactly over my head..but he tolerated the tractor, the dogs and me...

i think he was very tired...no more calling and the eyelidsjust starting to droop...

he stayed and i watched the light changeacross his feathers...beautiful soft light...
